This flight marked the third lunar landing and return mission. First use of mobile equipment transporter (a small two-wheeled handcart) on the lunar surface. Time on the lunar surface, distance traversed and payload returned from the Moon were considerably greater than previous missions. After a delayed liftoff and modified translunar trajectory, the Lunar Module "Antares" landed on the Moon on February 5 at 4:18 AM EST. Landing occurred in the Fra Mauro highlands, just 87 feet from its target point. Astronauts Shepard and Mitchell made two excursions on the lunar surface totaling nine hours, 24 minutes, while Roosa conducted scientific experirnents from the CSM in lunar orbit.
